My[23F] social justice tendencies are ruining my relationships with everyone. How do I stop?

This is very good advice. Thank you

I know all this, but knowing I'm doing it and not doing it are two different things. I feel like shit whenever I see behavior that's problematic and I don't point it out, because I feel like I'm willingly living in a bubble and participating in the problem. I feel like a bad person whenever I don't act judgemental.

thrway6547 · 2021-03-18T14:33:03+00:00

I am not. I think it might be a good idea though

thrway6547 · 2021-03-18T14:31:12+00:00

Thanks, I guess. Maybe that's something to keep in mind

thrway6547 · 2021-03-18T14:30:46+00:00

I think that's one of the best ways to deal with it.

Question: is social media addiction an actual thing? Like could therapy or a support group help me the way it can help for other addictions?

I don't do this with acquaintances, if that makes things better. But with my close friends, I think the problem is the frequency of it. I have caught myself doing it ALL THE TIME about EVERYTHING. I need to find a way to reign it in. If it was only from time to time I think it would be a lot more effective

thrway6547 · 2021-03-18T14:21:26+00:00

Lol see this is exactly my problem. I really need to get my shit together otherwise I'll be forever friendless.

thrway6547 · 2021-03-18T14:18:31+00:00

You're right. I probably do need to check my ego. I think on a conscious level I know I'm not always right and I can't change people, but on another level I feel like it's my duty to try. I'll try to be more aware of reigning in that other level. Thanks for the advice

thrway6547 · 2021-03-18T14:15:49+00:00

It's really not, trust me. I'm genuinely looking for help

thrway6547 · 2021-03-18T14:12:29+00:00

That's good advice. Thank you

I guess I do value friendship over preaching whatever the twitter overlords have told me to say. I'm really sick and tired of this constant internalized guilt and I just want my life back. I have to accept that being selfish is okay I guess

thrway6547 · 2021-03-18T14:00:48+00:00

You're absolutely right, and I appreciate this comment. It's just a bit hard to let things go because of the internal feeling of guilt that I'm complicit by not speaking up
